Psychotherapy studies have revealed that therapist characteristics are responsible for 5% to 9% of outcome variance. The therapist-facilitative interpersonal skills (FIS) have been shown to predict both alliance and outcomes, indicating that higher FIS therapists are more effective than lower FIS therapists. The current study focused on the development and validation of the FIS-client version (FIS-C) instrument, aimed at collecting the clients' perspectives on relevant therapist characteristics.
The clinical outcomes in routine evaluation-outcome measures, the session rating scale, and the FIS questionnaire-client version were filled out by psychotherapy clients. Exploratory, confirmatory factor, and test-retest analysis were conducted.
Results indicate robust psychometric characteristics, in terms of validity (factorial, convergent, discriminant, and nomological), reliability, and sensitivity.
The validation of the FIS-C represents an important contribution to clinical research and practice, namely to the field of client feedback and therapist expertise.
心理治疗研究表明，治疗师的特征可解释5%至9%的治疗结果差异。治疗师促进性人际技能（FIS）已被证明可预测治疗联盟和治疗结果，这表明具有较高FIS的治疗师比具有较低FIS的治疗师更有效。本研究聚焦于FIS-客户版（FIS-C）工具的开发与验证，旨在收集客户对相关治疗师特征的看法。
心理治疗客户填写常规评估-结果测量中的临床结果、疗程评定量表和FIS问卷-客户版。进行了探索性、验证性因素分析以及重测分析。
结果表明，在效度（因子效度、聚合效度、区分效度和法则效度）、信度和敏感性方面，该工具具有稳健的心理测量学特征。
FIS-C的验证对临床研究和实践，即客户反馈和治疗师专业领域，具有重要贡献。
